Summary of Michael McDonald - A Gathering of Friends

Filmed at Los Angeles' Shrine Auditorium, friends and admirers of Michael McDonald came together to pay homage to the man and his music. No stranger to recognition, the five-time Grammy Award winner's particular brand of "blue-eyed soul" produced a series of chart-topping hits. As a member of the Doobie Brothers and a successful solo artist, Michael McDonald's distinctive baritone vocals are instantly recognizable to fans worldwide.

Songs:
On My Own (with Patti LaBelle), No Love to Be Found (with Wendy Moten), Holy City (with Edwin McCain), All I Need (with Tommy Sims), Ride Like the Wind (with Christopher Cross), She Lay Her Whip Down (with Jeff Bridges), Ya Mo Be There (with James Ingram), Maria (with James Ingram & David Pack), You Belong to Me (with Patti Austin), Heart to Heart (with Kenny Loggins), This Is It (with Kenny Loggins), Minute By Minute (with The Doobie Brothers), Takin' It to the Streets (with The Doobie Brothers).


Michael McDonald's career was littered with late-'70s and early-'80s hit singles, many of which are heard in this 2000 tribute show. Hosted by actor Jeff Bridges (who also, believe it or not, sings a duet with McDonald, "She Lay Her Whip Down"), the concert features singers whose biggest chart moments were courtesy of McDonald's melodic composing style or distinctively raspy backing vocals, including Christopher Cross ("Ride Like the Wind"), Patti LaBelle ("On My Own"), Kenny Loggins ("This Is It"), and James Ingram ("Yah Mo B There"). And as a capper, the finale reunites McDonald with his Doobie Brothers cohorts, whose biggest popularity coincided with McDonald's taking the lead-vocal chores. Two of those smashes, "Minute by Minute" and "Takin' It to the Streets," end the show on a high note. The concert's relative brevity (70 minutes) makes one think some songs ended up on the cutting room floor. --Kevin Filipski
